What challenges for the South? C oastal zones are in the front line as regards physicochemical changes in the oceans. The rise in sea level is pushing back coastlines. The warming and acidification of seawater also disturb ecosystems that are under marine influence. However it is very difficult for researchers to separate climate effects from those—more numerous—that result directly from human activities. Coastal areas pay a high price for their attractiveness, with increasing urbanisation and exploitation of resources. But one thing is certain: these environments have often become fragile and future population growth and changes in ways of life will mean that these direct anthropic pressures will continue to combine with the increasing effects of climate change.
